Has anyone written any white papers/articles on banking information
security?

I would be interested in publishing quality white papers/articles that
had to do with any of the following:

-Core banking application security
-Identity theft
-VoIP security
-Compliance to information security regulations
-Other banking and information security related security topics.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Lila B.

Subject: Some new whitepapers ...

Hey all,

I've written two papers available from here
http://www.ngssoftware.com/papers.htm

The first deals with buffer _underruns_ , DEP and Address Space Layout
Randomization on Windows. During the paper's review process I was
pointed to
http://www.phrack.org/show.php?p=58 which deals with the same conceptual

issues to defeat PaX on Linux but, as my paper was completed, I thought
I
may as well still go ahead and release it. Besides mine discusses buffer

underruns, too :)

The second paper talks about using inference as a means of drilling for
data
with SQL injection and it is based upon a talk I presented at Blackhat
Europe earlier on in the year. I divide SQL injection data theft attacks

into three classes - inband, out-of-band and inference. The first,
in-band,
uses the existing connection to get data out; the second, out-of-band,
uses
another channel, e.g. smtp by using builtin database mail functions; and

lastly inference. With inference there is no actual transfer of data -
rather it can be inferred what the data is by making observations about
differences in the way an application behaves.

Cheers,
